ABOUT PRODUCTID 14099
This faceted cobalt blue glass vase, originating from nineteenth-century Bohemia, exemplifies the essential attributes of the Biedermeier period: pronounced geometric forms, restrained ornamentation, and exceptional craftsmanship. The saturated, deep cobalt hue extends evenly throughout the piece; its rounded body gracefully narrows to a faceted, octagonal base that ensures stability and architectural clarity. The wide, crown-like rim features meticulously cut facets, lending the upper section a sculptural, almost regal character. The highly reflective glass surface presents crisp facet edges that play with the light, highlighting each geometric contour. There are no visible damages, repairs, or marks of use. Its overall condition is described as excellent, with no signs of restoration or age-related discoloration.The vase seems to narrate an era of poise and composure: its simplicity alludes to the Biedermeier pursuit of harmony, while the cobalt color evokes the cool clarity of candlelit salons and glass. Sharp faceting and defined contours convey architectural order, as if every angle and surface reflects the dignified rituals of nineteenth-century interiors. The singular, intense color and lack of applied decoration intensify the piece’s sense of monumentality and refinement.The vase can be displayed alongside clear glass vessels or allowed to stand alone atop an Empire-style console or modest oak commode. It fits seamlessly into pared-back classic interiors inspired by Biedermeier austerity as well as into more eclectic collector’s spaces, where its precise faceting might contrast with patterned textiles and wallpaper. It works as a centerpiece among chrome or deep-toned ceramics, lending a touch of historical geometry to a living room or study.
